Tickets
Tickets gives your server a complete support workflow. Members can open a private ticket from a panel or command, staff can claim and route it, and Strom keeps its history and transcript after it closes.
- Department-based ticket routing and permissions
- Button and select-menu ticket panels
- Staff claiming, assignment, transfer, notes, tags, and member management
- Custom priorities and first-response SLA tracking
- Per-member limits, cooldowns, and automatic inactivity handling
- Search, statistics, history, and temporary transcript links
Setup
- Open your server in the Strom Dashboard and select Tickets.
- Enable the module.
- Create a department such as Billing or Technical Support.
- Choose its category, support roles, ticket limits, messages, and staff permissions.
- Create a ticket panel, connect its buttons or menu options to departments, and deploy it to a Discord channel.
Strom needs permission to view and manage the configured channels, send messages, embed links, attach files, and manage channel permissions.
Departments
Each department controls where its tickets are created and who can work on them. Department settings include:
- category and staff notification channel;
- support roles and directly assigned staff;
- maximum open tickets per member and open cooldown;
- opening message and ticket channel naming;
- claim, assignment, transfer, tags, notes, and priority permissions;
- inactivity warnings and automatic closing;
- priority levels, first-response targets, and SLA escalation behavior.
The department slug is used by /ticket create and deployed panels. Avoid changing it after sharing commands or deploying a panel.
Ticket panels
Panels are the messages members use to open tickets. Build the embed, choose a button or select-menu layout, map each option to a department, and add optional intake questions. Deploy the panel after saving it.
Member commands
Commands work as slash and prefix commands. Prefix examples use the default ! prefix.
| Slash command | Prefix command | Description |
|---|---|---|

/ticket list [page] | !ticket list [page] | List tickets visible to you. |

Troubleshooting
::: details Members cannot open tickets Confirm the module and target department are active, the member is not blacklisted, their open-ticket limit and cooldown allow another ticket, and Strom can create channels in the configured category. :::
::: details Staff cannot see a new ticket Add at least one support role or direct staff member to the department and confirm Strom can update channel permission overwrites. :::
::: details A panel opens the wrong department Edit and redeploy the panel. Check that every button or menu option points to the intended active department slug. :::
::: details The transcript link expired Run /ticket transcript again. Each secure link is temporary and expires after 6 minutes. :::
